POWER DENSITY SOLUTIONS LLC, JAMES HILDEBRANDT, Plaintiffs-Appellants v. UNITED STATES, Defendant-Appellee
This order is nonprecedential.
Appeal from the United States Court of Federal Claims in No. 1:21-cv-00911-AOB, Judge Armando O. Bonilla.
Before DYK, CUNNINGHAM, and STARK, Circuit Judges.
ORDER
ON MOTION
CUNNINGHAM, Circuit Judge.
The United States Court of Federal Claims entered judgment in this case on March 21, 2023. On May 23, 2023, appellants filed their notice of appeal from that judgment. The United States moves to dismiss this appeal as untimely. The appellants have not responded.
To be timely, a party must file an appeal within 60 days of the final judgment or order being appealed from the Court of Federal Claims. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 2107, 2522; Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B); Fed Cir. R. 1(a)(1)(C). This time limit is "a jurisdictional requirement" and "not subject to equitable tolling." Marandola v. United States, 518 F.3d 913, 914 (Fed. Cir. 2008) (citation omitted). Here, the notice of appeal was due no later than May 22, 2023. Fed. R. App. P. 26(a)(1)(C). Because the notice of appeal was not received within that time, we lack jurisdiction and must dismiss.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The motion is granted. The appeal is dismissed. (2) The parties shall bear their own costs.
